RICHMOND REVEALED

2019 marks 400 years since the first enslaved Africans (on record) arrived to Virginia's shores.

For the City of Richmond (“RVA”), formerly one of the largest auction sites for the U.S. trade in enslaved Africans and capital of the Confederacy, 2019 offers a rare opportunity to illuminate Our City's African past, global present, and boundless future. Richmond Revealed is an initiative of, for, and by those who call Richmond home. We look forward to embarking on this journey with you.
